Body dampness and body cold
From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, many people with spleen deficiency will cause obesity and excessive moisture, which is directly related to spleen deficiency. What are the symptoms of spleen deficiency? What's the difference between a wet person and a cold person? What problems should we pay attention to? Let's study together with many questions.

Spleen deficiency symptom

In the past, we paid little attention to spleen deficiency, but in recent years, with the development of society and the change of lifestyle, more and more symptoms of spleen deficiency appeared in our lives.

The so-called spleen deficiency is a Chinese medicine term. Generally refers to a series of pathological phenomena and syndromes of spleen physiological dysfunction caused by spleen deficiency. Including spleen-qi deficiency, spleen-yang deficiency, stagnation of middle qi, spleen failing to control blood and other syndromes. Mainly because of eating disorders. It is caused by fatigue or chronic diseases and physical weakness. Spleen has the functions of transporting nutrients in food, transporting water and controlling blood. Spleen deficiency leads to abnormal transport and transformation, which may lead to malnutrition, loss of water and liquid to spread, wet phlegm or blood loss.

Clinical manifestations of spleen deficiency

Spleen deficiency syndrome refers to the diseases caused by spleen deficiency, which are complicated, mainly including vomiting, diarrhea, edema, bleeding, amenorrhea, leukorrhagia, cold limbs and salivation in children.

On the basis of spleen-qi deficiency syndrome, there are also clinical manifestations of chronic bleeding, such as menorrhagia, metrorrhagia, hematochezia, epistaxis and subcutaneous bleeding. In addition to bleeding, you must also see some symptoms of spleen deficiency.

Etiology of spleen deficiency

Spleen belongs to the earth in the five elements, and is the most yin in the yin and yang of the five internal organs. Spleen is the "source of qi and blood biochemistry", which is responsible for transporting and transforming, regulating blood, ascending and clearing, and transporting and transforming subtle Shui Gu. After the human body is born, all the viscera and organs are nourished by the tiny Shui Gu produced by the spleen, so it is called "the foundation of the day after tomorrow". Together with stomach, meat, lips and mouth, it forms the spleen system.

Deficiency of spleen function and lack of biochemical sources are caused by spleen deficiency or improper diet, emotional factors, disorder of work and rest, spleen or chronic kidney disease patients are damaged by medicine and food, damp evil stays for a long time, and spleen is damaged. Spleen plays a very important role in the digestion and absorption of food, so almost all gastrointestinal diseases can appear or be accompanied by spleen deficiency.

Symptoms of body dampness

Body dampness is the moisture in the body, which is mostly caused by eating cold drinks, eating cold things such as cold fruits and vegetables, and damaging the yang of the human body. Under normal circumstances, the human body has the natural ability to adjust the external temperature and humidity changes, but some people's health is affected by poor health, diseases or living habits, which leads to the imbalance of the water regulation system in the body and the inability to discharge water.

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the spleen can transport water and dampness. Spleen likes dryness and hates dampness. If the spleen yang goes up, the spleen is healthy, the function of transporting water and dampness is normal, and dampness is not easy to cause disease. On the other hand, patients often suffer from dizziness, heavy head, sore limbs, heavy body pain, unfavorable joint flexion and extension, chest tightness, abdominal distension, nausea and vomiting, loss of appetite, thin stool, thick and greasy tongue coating and other symptoms.

Among the evils of wind, cold, summer heat, dampness, dryness and fire, TCM is most afraid of dampness. Hot and cold are easy to handle, cold is warm, and hot is cold; We will drive away the wind when there is wind, moisten when there is dryness, and clear when there is summer heat. Nine times out of ten, body fluid will be injured by dampness, and dampness can't be removed. Therefore, in addition to dryness and dampness, traditional Chinese medicine is also beneficial to dampness, dampness and infiltration, and dampness is the easiest to penetrate. Search the official account of WeChat for pulse diagnosis and health care. Always in league with other evil forces. When it is cold, it is cold and wet, when it is hot, it is damp and hot, when it is windy, it is rheumatism, and it is obese under the skin. Why are the diseases of modern people so complicated and difficult to treat? Because the body is wet, the pathogens outside the body are always intertwined with the moisture inside the body! How to judge whether there is moisture in the body?

The most convenient way is to look at the stool. If the stool is not formed, the loose stool will be wet in the body for a long time. If the stool is shaped, but after the stool is finished, there will always be some sticking to the toilet, which is difficult to flush down. This is also a manifestation of moisture in the body, because moisture has the characteristics of viscosity.

If there is constipation, and the stool is not formed, it means that the moisture in the body is already very heavy. If you really don't want to observe the stool, stick out your tongue to observe, yellow and greasy, which is a sign of wetness in the body. The yellower, or the fatter, the heavier the moisture.

Some people still feel sleepy when they should get up at seven every morning. They feel that something is wrapped around their heads, which makes people feel depressed, or something is wrapped around them, which makes people lazy to move. They can also tell that their bodies are very wet. In Chinese medicine, it is said that "it is as wet as being wrapped". This feeling of being wrapped is just like the body's feeling of moisture, just like wearing a washed shirt that is not dry.

Body cold symptoms

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that "body cold" is often called "deficiency cold", which refers to physical deficiency cold. Traditional Chinese medicine can use the method of "eight-outline syndrome differentiation" to explain the condition, which can be divided into "yin, yang, exterior, interior, deficiency, excess, cold and heat" This eight-point syndrome differentiation shows that both deficiency and cold are manifested in the same person, so we say that this person is deficient and cold. People with cold constitution are afraid of cold, and they are even more afraid of cold with deficiency. Being in a cold constitution for a long time, women will affect fertility and menstruation, and men will cause sexual dysfunction.

Body cold is a symptom caused by the interweaving of physique and living habits. It takes a long time to completely treat body cold, but as long as we pay more attention to it in our lives and adhere to healthy living habits for a long time, we can effectively prevent body cold. Most of the heat in the body is generated by "muscles", especially through the "utilization" of the muscles of the lower body, which can effectively promote the blood circulation of the whole body, thus achieving the effect of body heat. On weekdays, you can try to stand on tiptoe and stretch your fingers, so that blood circulation is smooth and body cold can be effectively prevented.

Conclusion: No matter what your constitution is, it is first and foremost to recognize the facts and regulate your body. If you are obese, regulate spleen deficiency first, and your body will gradually lose weight.

When it comes to constitution, most people will think of nine constitutions of traditional Chinese medicine. However, there is another constitution classification method in TCM-according to the strength of human yang, it can be divided into: Sun constitution, Yangming constitution, Shaoyang constitution, Taiyin constitution, Shaoyin constitution and Jueyin constitution. Introduce it today.

This classification can be more clearly understood: the development process of diseases and pathology that may occur in different types of people-people with Sanyang constitution are full of yang, have strong disease resistance, and the disease location is mostly superficial, and the disease syndromes are mostly empirical and heat syndromes; People with Yin San constitution have weak yang, weak disease resistance, and most of the diseases are in the inner layer, and most of the diseases are deficiency syndrome and cold syndrome.

After reading this article, many questions that you didn't understand at first will suddenly become clear.

First of all, the composition of the sun

The constitution of the sun is: full of vitality and strong resistance.

People with sun constitution can be described in one word-full of energy, that is, enthusiasm, energy, positive energy and strong energy field, which can attract many people.

Under normal circumstances, when pathogens invade the meridians of the sun, they will encounter strong resistance from vital qi, and it is difficult for pathogens to go any further. Therefore, people with sun constitution feel evil and suffer from sun disease.

The symptoms of solar disease mainly include: cold, fever, high fever, aversion to cold, headache, general pain, sweating or anhidrosis, cough, asthma, retching and so on. The pulse is generally slow or tight, and the tongue coating is normal and thin and white.

The treatment of taiyang disease is mainly to relieve exterior syndrome, including sweating, harmonizing ying and Wei, relieving exterior syndrome and so on. Patients with sun constitution are very easy to recover and rarely have other diseases.

However, at present, there are very few people with sun constitution, and they are more common in some children and adults with sufficient congenital yang.

Second, Yangming constitution

Yangming's physique can be summarized in three words: solid body and abundant blood. Such people often have high voices, rough faces and red faces, strong muscles and strong blood gas, which are more common in athletes or heavy manual workers.

Among the people we are familiar with, Song Wu is a typical Yangming physique.

His image: majestic body, broad mind, grand words, heroic heart and strong bones;

His food intake: eat 3 Jin of meat in one breath and drink 18 bowls of wine (how much spleen yang is needed to transport it);

His strength: killing tigers with his bare hands.

So, what problems are people with Yangming constitution prone to?

If people with Yangming constitution feel exogenous evil, they will often overreact to healthy qi and produce excessive resistance, which will benefit the evil mechanism and lead to Yangming disease.

The main symptoms of Yangming disease are: high fever, thirst, hyperhidrosis, hyperactivity, delirium, nonsense, gastrointestinal stagnation and so on.

There are two kinds of traditional Chinese medicines commonly used to regulate Yangming's physique:

First, rhubarb is a purgative, which can purge blood stasis and turbid qi;

Secondly, gypsum, which is an antidote, can clear the stagnation of heat evil.

However, these two drugs are extremely cold and should not be abused, otherwise it will hurt the vitality and lead to the aggravation of the disease.

Third, shaoyang constitution

Shaoyang's constitution is: the vitality is slightly insufficient, and the resistance is not as good as that of the sun. But relatively speaking, Shaoyang's physique is still good.

People with shaoyang constitution generally have the following characteristics:

1, optimistic and open-minded, not stubborn, bright inside, no gloomy thoughts;

2, more energetic, able to cope with daily work plus Xiong Haizi;

3, occasionally can't eat well and sleep well, but it won't look yellow;

4, it is not easy to dysmenorrhea, but if you catch cold during menstruation, it will also cause discomfort.

However, people with shaoyang constitution can't get rid of the pathogens completely due to the resistance of the sun meridians after the invasion of pathogens, and exogenous pathogens will further penetrate into the level of shaoyang meridians, and they will suffer from shaoyang disease.

The main symptoms of shaoyang disease are: bitter taste, dry throat, blurred vision, cold and heat, chest pain, loss of appetite, upset, vomiting, nausea and so on.

The treatment of shaoyang disease is a harmonious solution. Generally, the prescription of Bupleurum is used, because Bupleurum promotes qi and blood circulation, disperses stagnation and regulates menstruation, which is a specific medicine for removing arthralgia and healthy qi in Shaoyang meridian.

To sum up, the constitutions of Sun, Yangming and Shaoyang are collectively called Sanyang Constitution. These people generally have good physical fitness and strong resistance, and are not easy to get some malignant diseases, such as cancer. People with Sanyang constitution rarely get it.

So, if you are born with three yang constitution, congratulations, this is the real win at the starting line.

Next, look at the Constitution of Yin San.

Fourth, the moon constitution.

People with Taiyin constitution are obviously less energetic than those with Sanyang constitution, and their overall or partial resistance is obviously insufficient.

People with moon constitution generally have the following characteristics:

1, especially prone to diarrhea, or chronic diarrhea for a long time;

2, if the skin is white, it will be pale, and if the skin is black, it will be yellow and dull;

3, the body is prone to edema, standing for a long time, the calf will become obviously thicker;

4, lack of strength, easy to fatigue after working for a while.

Most scientists and technicians are moon people.

People with moon constitution are sick, and the essence lies in the lack of healthy qi. Treatment should be mild and nourishing, such as moxibustion. Never abuse cold things, otherwise it will aggravate the loss of yang, which is counterproductive.

Five, Shaoyin constitution

The most obvious manifestation of shaoyin constitution is yang deficiency.

The deficiency of shaoyin focuses on supporting yang-this is the general program to treat shaoyin disease and change shaoyin physique.

Clinically, people with shaoyin constitution are most likely to die suddenly after catching a cold. There is a saying in the ancients that "typhoid fever is easy to cause physical weakness", and "physical weakness" is a person with less yin deficiency and physique. Cases of acute myocarditis, acute nephritis and sudden death are often seen in hospitals. These conditions are unique to Shaoyin constitution, because Shaoyin in the hands is the heart meridian, Shaoyin in the feet is the kidney meridian, and evil spirits are trapped in Shaoyin, either heart disease or kidney disease.

There are also common strokes, hypertension, diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, kidney diseases, tumors and so on. Most of them are shaoyin disease, and these patients are mostly shaoyin physique. To put it bluntly: only people with shaoyin constitution will get many chronic diseases, which are difficult to treat. Moreover, most patients who have not been cured by western medicine for a long time, or patients who have taken cold Chinese medicine for a long time, have become Shaoyin physique, and most of their diseases are Shaoyin disease.

To deal with shaoyin disease, from the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, aconite is the main drug; In terms of external treatment, moxibustion ranks first. However, although both of them can restore yang and rescue adverse reactions, moxibustion is generally recommended by Chinese medicine because of the toxicity of aconite and the difficulty in controlling the dosage.

Six, Jue Yin constitution

People with Jueyin constitution are extremely weak.

When foreign evil invades, good and evil struggle, and the human body is at a critical juncture, which is the last resistance of righteousness. Therefore, this will bring two results: first, the restoration of good and evil, terminally ill, turning the corner; Second, the deficiency of righteousness, the reality of evil, died of serious illness.

People with Jueyin constitution are often prone to liver disease, with slightly green face, dull cheeks, towering nose and tall figure. For Jueyin constitution, dark plum is the main medicine, because its taste is extremely sour, and the acid belongs to wood, and the wood enters the liver, and Jueyin is the level of liver and pericardium.

From the point of view of external treatment, moxibustion is a necessary method, because yin and evil have reached the extreme, and yang must be supplemented quickly to save lives.

Supporting yang is the first method.
